My easiest, no hassle, lowest expense rentals are the ones where the tenants stay 5 + years, do minor maintenance themselves, call me immediately with any issues so I can fix them before they become much more costly, and agree to annual market adjusted rent rate increases.  

What does it look like cash on cash return for market rent? 

Go to Etsy and search for "rental property tracker," and you will find hundreds of nice spreadsheets to track 10-20 rentals, usually for under $10.Software has extremely helpful features like online payments, marketing syndication (click a button, and your property is advertised on multiple sites), electronic document review/signing, maintenance tracking, and owner reports.

With that said Phoenix had one of the highest home price declines in the last market down turn.  

@Linda PhamAll our midterm rentals are in Colorado as are our clients, so I don't know Houston's market.

Personally, I invest in properties in C-Class neighborhoods in my market (East Linden and Southern Hilltop), and they’ve been cash-flowing well so far.

I would love a ideas on what you think might be best to do in the current market and may even be interested in partnering with someone if the numbers work for both parties.

The units are all currently occupied right now, so we won't have to worry about the buyer's market right now haha.With the cash flow I will receive, it will be enough to take care of property taxes, insurance, and enough to save up for any emergiences with the unit that I will need to take care of, so no need to worry, I got you :)!

You could certainly reach this demographic, but it could also cost you substantially more than the return.For the money, your best bet is probably a dedicated website for your property with the key words that you want to convey.

The property was in a great market but needed a full cosmetic rehab and basement finish to add a bedroom and increase resale value.
